Observe and analyses about the static (Not Moving and not rotating) Systems.
Static
Equilibrium
Since cell activities came to equilibrium only on dead, we consider the situation of a living system. To be an equilibrium system we need to have
Force
In physics, a force is any influence that causes an object to undergo a certain change, either concerning its movement, direction, or geometrical construction. It is measured with the SI unit of newtons and represented by the symbol F. In other words, a force is that which can cause an object with mass to change its velocity
F1
F2
At equilibrium F1 = F2 (
Torque
Torque, moment or moment of force (see the terminology below), is the tendency of a force to rotate an object about an axis,[1] fulcrum, or pivot. Just as a force is a push or a pull, a torque can be thought of as a twist to an object. Mathematically, torque is defined as the product of force and the lever-arm distance, which tends to produce rotation.
10 m Distance Force
Torque = Force* Distance = 750*10 (750 is Newton. The mass is given by Kg we have to convert it to Newton ) = 7500 Nm
Net Torque = 0
Equilibrium
System is Equilibrium
Net Force = 0
Levers
For your arm, leg or any body part to move the appropriate muscles and bones must work together as a series of levers. A lever comprises of three components
Fulcrum or pivot - the point about which the lever rotates Load - the force applied by the lever system Effort - the force applied by the user of the lever system
The way in which a lever will operate is dependent on the type of lever. Classification of Levers
Class 1 - The fulcrum lies between the effort and the load
Class 2 - The fulcrum is at one end, the effort at the other end and the load lies between the effort and the fulcrum Class 3 - The fulcrum is at one end, the load at the other end and the effort lies between the load and the fulcrum
Class 1 Lever
Class 2 Lever
Class 3 Lever
Class 3 is the most common class of lever to be found in the human body.
First Class
For Equilibrium Force FM + W = FJ Torque At the point A Clockwise W * 2.5 FM* 5.0 = 0 (Net torque is equal to zero) Given that W = 50 N Hence 50* 2.5 = FM * 5.0 FM = 25 N From Equation 01 25 + 50 = FJ FJ = 75 N 02 01
